Sisters

Maggie is the only one who can get her to smile . Sorry it's not a great picture but if I try to get a head-on shot she gives me the "stink-eye". Today (wed.) has been a step back. I am feeling so sorry for any family who has ever dealt with a colicky baby...this is terrible. We know she is stressed & grieving but we also know that she is very strong-willed and stubborn. We are thinking that we may have an endurance athlete on our hands..it's amazing how long & hard she can cry, but then turn it off. Doug has had the most difficult job because she wants him to hold her constantly & be walking with her. I try to take her for walks a few times a day but he has to do most of the holding right now. I can't hold her in the room at all without terrible screaming, bucking & kicking. I always have to take her somewhere away from him. I really felt like I was prepared for most circumstances but having her despise me was not something I was prepared for. Doug dreads the 15 hr. flight next Wed. Please be praying for him. He knows that unless things improve drastically then he will be responsible for her most of the ride home.
